It couldn’t be all the extra fees, the increased cost of everything from food to entertainment, the homeless and drug problem contaminating the Strip and the state of air travel.... Got to be Trump.

Interesting. The unions used to be strongly opposed to illegal immigration because it was non-union labor and drove down wages.

Can illegal aliens be dues paying members these days?

Vegas used to be cheap because they wanted you to waste money gambling
Now it’s expensive and I can gamble on my phone from my house (not that I do that.)

Is it Trump’s fault that the Vegas Strip has turned into a sh#thole of “aspiring rappers” smoking and dealing weed on the sidewalk?

Wait a minute. So it was the illegal aliens spending all their money at the casinos? Now that is gone??

That is what the headline implies.

Then a few lines down, they talk about Canadians not coming to Vegas. Now, that I can understand. They are not fans of being told they will be a 51 state and they prefer socialism.

Typical misleading headlines.

Canadians can stay home. That is their right.

Besides, gambling is too easy to find locally or on some app to spend all the money to fly to Vegas to play.

Yeah, call it a “slump” and don’t say “online gambling” because that gives away that this isn’t temporary.

It’s Trumps war on the cartels having success, He’s chewing away at their disposable cash and easy access to America

Las Vegas is like if Ticketmaster was a city.

Don’t know about the rest of the US, but in this Western state, if I want to give my money away, I can drive 25 miles to an Indian casino. No air fare, no TSA groping, cheaper rates for rooms, food, etc. Not to mention Online gaming.

I guess the one “Trump effect” I can think of is by hiring illegal aliens, and paying them under the table, the casinos avoid the $12/Hr minimum wage.

I have read elsewhere that younger people (the ones who spend $) have little interest in the antiquated Vegas schtick. The Rat-pack days are long gone. Sin City has run its course.

Vegas is too expensive and getting to be not very safe. Reason enough not to go there.

That's interesting. You'd think a LABOR Union would applaud efforts to create a level playing field.

Almost makes you think Labor Unions are not for the working man and woman after all.

Oopsie.

It’s because Las Vegas has become unaffordable.
